Willow was bottle fed every 90 minutes by her foster family to build up her strength. In the first week, Willow developed an infection at the site of her umbilical cord. She was giving minuscule amounts of antibiotics and required regular cleansing to ensure that her infection cleared.

Despite having a rough start at life, Willow continued to gain weight and meet all the milestones for a newborn kitten.

It was not long before Willow was due to be spayed and become available for adoption that her foster family knew that Willow was where she belonged. In August last year, Willow was adopted and found her “furever” home.
